Product Description
James Stevens#8217; best-selling texti /iis written for those who use, rather than develop, statistical techniques. Dr. Stevens focuses on a conceptual understanding of the material rather than on proving the results. Definitional formulas are used on small data sets to provide conceptual insight into what is being measured. The assumptions underlying each analysis are emphasized, and the reader is shown how to test the critical assumptions using SPSS or SAS. Printouts with annotations from SAS or SPSS show how to process the data for each analysis. The annotations highlight what the numbers mean and how to interpret the results. Numerical, conceptual, and computer exercises enhance understanding. Answers are provided for half of the exercises. brbrThe book offers comprehensive coverage of one-way, power, and factorial analysis of variance, repeated measures analysis, simple and multiple regression, analysis of covariance, and HLM. Power analysis is an integral part of the book. A computer example of real data integrates many of the concepts. Highlights of the Third Edition include:*a new chapter on hierarchical linear modeling using HLM6;br*a CD containing all of the book#8217;s data sets;br*new coverage of how to cross validate multiple regression results with SPSS and a new section on model selection (Ch. 6);br*more exercises in each chapter. Intended for intermediate statistics or statistics II courses taught in departments of psychology, education, business, and other social and behavioral sciences, a prerequisite of introductory statistics is required. An iInstructor#8217;s Solutions CD/i is available to adopters.

5 out of 5 stars

Stevens Intermediate Statistics May 21, 2008
This is yet another well written book by Stevens. It goes into a sufficient amount of detail to understand the how, when, why, and where of these statistical analyses. One does not have to be a statistician to understand it. This book has great utility. The one disappointment was the lack of updated SPSS syntax, but other than this, it is well worth every penny.

Intermediate Statistics October 3, 2007
The author of this book does not explain this information in a way that's easy to understand. Explanations are too short, and unclear. Some of the examples used to explain the formulas are incorrect.
